2. Description of Related Art
During the use of a semiconductor component, it is often required to install a semiconductor chip onto a supporting based that is specially designed therefor and to connect a circuit board electrically via the supporting base in order to properly mount the semiconductor chip on the circuit board. The semiconductor chip can be a light emitting diode or an infrared chip, which is mainly used in a lighting fixture or an infrared sensor.
Since the light emitted by the semiconductor chip has directions and fixed illumination angles, if the semiconductor chip is the light emitting diode, the situation of non-uniform distribution of light would occur, and the situation of improper sensing would occur if the semiconductor chip is the infrared chip; therefore, there is a need for an improvement to increase the range of the light emitted by the semiconductor chip.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention is to provide a supporting base for a semiconductor chip, which utilizes a reflection plate configured to correspond with a cut-out portion and the semiconductor chip in order to allow the light emitted from the semiconductor chip to be reflected by the reflection plate such that the effect of increased illumination range can be achieved.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a supporting base for a semiconductor chip, comprising a substrate, a surrounding wall and a reflection plate; the surrounding wall is formed on the substrate; an accommodating space is formed between the surrounding wall and the substrate, and is provided for receiving the semiconductor chip therein; the semiconductor chip is electrically connected to the substrate; the surrounding wall has one side formed of an cut-out portion; the reflection plate is arched from the substrate and formed within the cut-out portion; the reflection plate is configured to correspond with the semiconductor chip and is formed of anobtuse angle31 with the substrate.
The present invention also includes the following effects. First, the design of attaching the semiconductor to the heat dissipating portion is able to achieve the effect of heat dissipation of the semiconductor chip; second, by attaching each one of the first arched surfaces to each one of the second arched surfaces correspondingly, the insulation member and the metal board member can be of greater attachment strength.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONThe following provides detailed description of embodiments of the present invention along with the accompanied drawings. It can, however, be understood that the accompanied drawings are provided for illustrative purposes only and shall not be treated as limitations to the present invention.
Please refer toFIGS. 1 to 3. As shown in the figures, the present invention provides a supportingbase1 for a semiconductor chip, comprising asubstrate10, a surroundingwall20 and areflection plate30.
Thesubstrate10 comprises ametal board member11 and aninsulation member12. Themetal board member11 includes an opening slot111 (as shown inFIG. 5); theinsulation member12 is fixed within theopening slot111 and divides themetal board member11 into aheat dissipating portion112 and aconductive portion113. Theopening slot111 and theinsulation member12 are of a W-resembling shape. Theopening slot111 includes an inner wall having a plurality of differentfirst corner surfaces1111; theinsulation member12 includes an outer circumferential surface having a plurality of differentsecond corner surfaces121; eachsecond corner surface121 is firmly attached to each correspondingfirst corner surface111. In addition, theinsulation member12 is an insulation plastic unit.
The surroundingwall20 is formed on thesubstrate10. Anaccommodating space21 is formed between the surroundingwall20 and thesubstrate10 and, is provided for receiving asemiconductor chip9 therein. The surroundingwall20 can be formed on themetal board member11 by an injection molding process and can be of the same material as theinsulation member12. Theheat dissipating portion112 and a part of theconductive portion113 are exposed in theaccommodating space21; the surroundingwall20 and theinsulation member12 separate theconductive portion113 in theaccommodating space21 into a plurality ofelectrodes1131. Thesemiconductor9 is attached to theheat dissipating portion112 and electrically connected to theelectrodes1131. The surroundingwall20 includes a cut-outportion22 formed on one side of theheat dissipating portion112 away from theconductive portion113.
Thereflection plate30 is extended to be bent from one end edge of theheat dissipating portion112 at the cut-outportion22; thereflection plate30 is configured to correspond with the cut-outportion22 and thesemiconductor chip9. Anobtuse angle31 is formed between thereflection plate30 and thesubstrate10. Theobtuse angle31 is of an angle between 91 degrees and 179 degrees and preferably between 110 degrees and 160 degrees. Thereflection board30 includes a surface facing to theaccommodating space21 and coated with areflection coating layer32.
Please refer toFIG. 4. As shown in the figure, first, a plurality ofsemiconductor chips9 are installed within theaccommodating space21 of the surroundingwall91 and are thermally attached to theheat dissipating portion112 of themetal board member11. In addition, a plurality ofconductive wires91 are used to electrically connect the plurality ofsemiconductor chips9 with each one of theelectrodes1131; wherein each one of thesemiconductor chips9 can be a light emitting diode or an infrared chip and etc. When thesemiconductor chips9 are driven to emit light, the light S emitted by thesemiconductor chip9 can be reflected by thereflection coating layer32 coated on thereflection plate30 such that the illumination range of the light S emitted from thesemiconductor chip9 can be increased.
In addition, with the design of theopening slot111 having the inner wall formed of the plurality offirst corner surfaces1111 and theinsulation member12 having the outer circumferential surface formed of the plurality ofsecond corner surfaces121 as well as the design of having thefirst corner surfaces1111 correspondingly secured with thesecond corner surfaces121, respectively, the unfavorable situation in which theinsulation member12 and themetal board member11 disengage from each other due to external forces can be prevented.
Furthermore, with the design of attaching thesemiconductors9 to theheat dissipating portion112, theheat dissipating portion112 is able to absorb the heat generated by thesemiconductor chips9 and to conduct the heat to the environment in order to achieve the effect of heat dissipation for thesemiconductor chips9.
Please refer toFIG. 6. As shown in the figure, in addition the aforementioned embedment for the supporting base of the present invention, it can also be implemented differently in another embodiment; wherein thesemiconductor chip9′ comprises a conductiveceramic plate91 and twochip units92,92′. The conductiveceramic plate91 is generally of a rectangular elongated body, which includes a flat top surface and a flat front surface with thechip unit92,92′ attached thereon, respectively; wherein thechip unit92′ at the front surface is configured to correspond to a location of thereflection plate30 so that thereflection plate30 can reflect the light emitted from thechip unit92′. Also, theconductive portion113′ of themetal board member11 includes not only theaforementioned electrodes1131 but also aninsertion terminal1132 extended from eachelectrode1131 and protruded out of the surroundingwall20 to engage with an insertion slot of a circuit board (not shown in the figure).
